While I'm encouraged by his perimeter shooting progression, I still want to see Gilbert dominate in the paint and use his strength to his advantage. A physical forward, Gilbert is athletic and getting better each time I watch him play. High academic programs should be interested in Gilbert with his physical tools and production. Gilbert's Midwest Basketball Club Quinn team will attract small college programs at every event they play at.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1679931"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Pretty much every player in Richmond Heights starting five is a stock riser after their unbelievable season that ended as unbeaten state champions. Wilson's floor spacing ability from the power forward position is pretty valuable when you combine that with his size, strength and production. Another prospect that improves almost every time I watch him play, I expect scholarship programs to take interest in Wilson during June and July. Richmond Heights brings back their entire starting five and will be projected to be arguably the best team in Ohio regardless of Division next season.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1426736"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Njie helped himself at the state tournament and at The Throne Hoops tournament with impressive performances. His ball handling improvements have allowed him to attack closeouts with more confidence and make plays in transition with the ball in his hands. Njie had a monster dunk against Pickerington Central in the state semifinals and shows flashes of intriguing plays pretty much every game. A complimentary piece with Centerville last season and with All Ohio Red this summer, you could see Njie take a big scoring leap as a senior with Centerville graduating some key scorers. Scholarship programs will want to continue to monitor Njie's development.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1462513"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Glass seems to be starting to put the pieces together and be an impact player. Most bigs take time to develop and Glass is no different but recent highlights show his progress as an athlete and with his ball skills as well. Glass averaged 6.6 PPG and 5.6 RPG as a Junior but I expect those numbers to skyrocket for his senior season. Glass is gaining momentum at the right time and will be a key piece for All Ohio Select this spring and summer. I'm excited to watch Glass again in May and see just how far he's came since the last time I watched him play in person.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-643ec94cbd6e8"} /-->
